Tasting Notes2012 was an ideal growing year at White Rock, and the 2012 Chardonnay is full, rich, and packed with flavor. The nose opens with ripe pear, lime, and citrus blossom. The mouth is soft and round, with a palette of lemon, bright apple, subtle oak, and vanilla. Our Chardonnay develops its lush mouth feel from 11 months of sur-lies aging in French oak barrels. The acid is bright and well integrated, promising excellent age-ability.

Our mission is to produce a terroir driven Napa wine of the highest possible quality sourced from impeccably farmed old vines with a focus on balance, complexity, concentration and ageability. Read More
